Chatterley Whitfield Heritage Centre

It has not been possible to go underground at Chatterley Whitfield for many years because the passages are flooded. More recently, Stoke-on-Trent City Council, as landowner, has imposed severe restrictions on visiting Whitfield because of concerns over safety. Some buildings are in a dangerous condition and almost all buildings are closed for the foreseeable future because there may be asbestos in them. Currently, the only way for members of the public to visit the site is on the annual Heritage Open Day in September. Sometimes, special visits for school groups can be arranged, but these must be arranged several months in advance. Some of the land around the perimeter of Chatterley Whitfield, however, is open to the public, and you can get an excellent view of the site from the top of the nearby tip. You can book your place on the 2013 Heritage Open day after the 1st August 2013 by visiting this link page :  Heritage Open Day 2013

Our new website, which is far from finished is now online.  I say far from finished as I am finding that as people get to know about us, I seem to get the reoccurring comment; 'I have found this, can you use it ?'.  In otherwords more photos, video, audio, documents, memories.....ALL WELCOME. So the site will and will continue to be Work in Progress... Check it out at www.chatterleywhitfieldfriends.org.uk
